'Delhi Pollution' - 727 News Result(s)

Delhi will be completely free of air and water pollution in the next three years, Union minister Nitin Gadkari said on Thursday, stressing that it was his "promise" to the city, which goes to polls on May 12.

Scientists have developed a new forecasting system that they say can provide residents of New Delhi and other heavily polluted areas of northern India critical information for reducing their exposure to potentially unhealthy air.

The National Green Tribunal has rapped the Delhi Pollution Control Committee and the municipal corporations over illegal dairies and condition of cattle in the city while slapping a fine of Rs 10 lakh each for their failure in discharging their duties.

Eco-eateries, offering cleaner air as well as modern menus to the well heeled are beyond reach for the poor, who have little means of escaping the deadly smog which coats New Delhi for much of the year.

Why are people "running after" firecrackers when it is automobiles that are the "bigger" source of pollution, the Supreme Court said today, responding to petitions requesting for a complete ban on firecrackers across the country.

Light rain and fog greeted residents of New Delhi and its neighbouring areas early morning today even as the temperatures were slightly higher than Tuesday. At least 12 trains of Northern Railways were delayed due to fog, according to news agency ANI.

Thunderstorm and wind could disrupt railway and airline operations in the coming days as western disturbances are expected to bring rain across New Delhi and its adjoining areas, according to the weather department.

Light rain made a comeback today in Delhi and its neighbouring areas as the national capital woke up to a cold morning. The temperatures were slightly lower than Friday with the minimum temperature settling at 11 degree Celsius. The maximum temperature hovered around 19 degrees.

As predicted, the overall air quality of Delhi and adjoining areas deteriorated to "very poor" on Monday, after days of improved "moderate" air caused by last Thursday's rain and hailstorm, which washed away the pollutants across the city.
